SOLAR INFLUENCE. 49 When the sun and moon are in opposition, the effect of the condition under consideration upon the solar tides is reversed. Let S be the sun, M the moon, and E the earth, C is the geoselenic centre. The point N being very little farther from the sun than the geoselenic centre, his attrac- tion can be only a little less at N than at C ; and the radius S N being but little longer than S C, the centrifugal force can be only slightly increased.
